"Originally published slightly different with illustrations by Diana Souza in 1989."
"Heather's favorite number is two. She has two arms, two legs, and two pets. And she also has two mommies. When Heather goes to school for the first time, someone asks her about her daddy, but Heather doesn't have a daddy. Then something interesting happens. When Heather and her classmates all draw pictures of their families, not one drawing is the same. It doesn't matter who makes up a family, the teacher says, because "the most important thing about a family is that all the people in it love one another"" -- provided by publisher.

Sweet book about little girl with two mommies submitted by EllieN-W on August 18, 2015, 9:51pm my daughters liked it, it is sweet, could be a reaffirming book for kids with gay or lesbian parents, or a good conversation opener for families with straight parents - a reminder that families come in many different ways.

Great submitted by aharv on August 25, 2017, 3:46pm Wonderful book that illustrates different families.
